Healthy Breakfast Muffins

These delicious & healthy breakfast muffins are a perfect start to your busy day. They are light and fluffy and really good for you too ! Not only are they are healthy breakfast idea but they make a nutrious and filling snack any time of the day. I actually really enjoy them with a cup of tea at the end of the day when the kids are finally in bed.

Mix up the ingredients any way you like and have them just how you like them. Personally I have been using red and green peppers in mine along with some mushrooms and different types of cheese. Mmmmm mmmmmm!! They freeze well so you can easily make a big batch at a time and use them when you need to. Pull them out of the freezer when you have unexpected guests, your kids are bugging you for something to eat or to pack in their lunch boxes for school. A really good healthy lunch idea if you ask me !

The recipe is simple enough but some people have commented that you don’t need to cook these muffins for 30 minutes. I suggest you experiment, I found any less and the egg was a little runny but you may have different results.

Either way these delicious muffins have become a favorite around our house of late and I hope you all enjoy them as much as we do.

Just did this recipe (with a few slight alterations) in the microwave, in large mugs with butter in the bottom, cooked the veggies for about 40 seconds added the egg mixture and cooked for 2 1/2 min. Turned out and my daughter said, “very good”

MMmm! These are so easy, and having them as a pretty muffin makes them look somewhat gourmet. I added mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, basil, parsley, caraway seeds, and sprinkled the top with blue cheese, parmesan & goat cheese.

With all that ingredient and 8 eggs I had enough for 6 big muffins and lots of mini muffins. The small ones defiantly cooked faster. I noticed you don’t want to wait for the tops to get browned at all because the sides cook fast enough and you don’t want them to dry out. Plus you don’t want to over cook them so you can reheat them (because eggs will continue to cook in the microwave.)

So all in all, just watch them closely. As my mama always said, “never walk away from eggs because that guarantees.those suckers will burn while your not looking.

These are so easy and so appealing! Great to have some in the fridge to eat over the next few days, too! Agreed that 15 minutes is about right to cook them through. I added fresh spinach. Anything that you’d put in an omelette–put it in!
